Ok. Useful—yes. Income—no. Not directly anyway, but I have no way of knowing how SM may have influenced purchases of my work from exhibitions for example. I have sold a couple of works as a result of a SM post.
But I’m not painting in order to make a living so I don’t work at the SM posts the way I probably would if I needed the income.
There are courses for artists on how to use SM effectively and if I were more serious about it I would certainly consider this. My observations on using SM are that to use it as a sales tool requires a certain way of thinking that is more than just dumping photos of your work every week; I don’t have that ‘business’ way of thinking, hence I feel I would need to learn how to use SM effectively.
I use only Instagram. Don’t use Facebook.
PLEASE how do I make these dreadful yellow things go away?
